Known as the Land of Waterfalls, Brevard and Transylvania County residents count on Steady Flame for dependable fireplace service.

Brevard is propane country — gas hearths here run off an owner-owned or leased tank, which changes line sizing, regulator setup, and BTU planning compared to a natural-gas town. We install gas, wood, and electric fireplaces, inserts, and stoves in Brevard, and — unlike a showroom or a mason — we're licensed to run the gas line ourselves. Every combustion install is permitted and inspected through Transylvania County. Since Helene, more homeowners here treat a fireplace as backup heat that works when the grid doesn't.
When running a gas line or a chimney isn't practical, a Dimplex electric fireplace brings the ambiance without any combustion, venting, or fuel. Steady Flame installs Dimplex's full range — Revillusion and Opti-myst units with strikingly realistic flame and even faux-ember and water-vapor effects — as built-in inserts, wall-mounts, and media-console fireplaces. Because there's no flue or gas, they drop into rooms a traditional hearth can't reach, from finished basements to condos and bedrooms.
What's Involved
We assess the wall, the framing, and your electrical capacity, then set the unit as a clean plug-in or a concealed hardwired installation. Many Dimplex models draw enough on a dedicated circuit to warm a room as zone heat, and we'll confirm your panel can carry it, coordinating with a licensed electrician when a new circuit is required. The flame effect runs independently of the heater, so you get the glow year-round. It's worth noting an electric unit relies on grid power, so unlike a gas or wood appliance it won't provide backup heat during an outage — a point WNC homeowners weigh carefully after Helene.
Heating Challenges in Brevard
Transylvania County earns its 'Land of Waterfalls' nickname with some of the highest rainfall in the eastern US — averaging 80+ inches annually. This extreme moisture is hard on masonry chimneys, causing crown cracks, spalling brick, and rusted dampers. Crawl spaces and chimney chases in Brevard homes are especially prone to moisture damage, making a waterproof chimney cap and annual inspection important for any fireplace.
Seasonal Tip for Brevard Homeowners
Brevard's exceptional rainfall makes chimney waterproofing and a quality rain cap smart investments to protect your fireplace year-round. We recommend a professional chimney inspection each fall to catch moisture damage before the wet spring season (March–June) returns.
